LONDON, October 4th.-Speaking to
deputation at Hawsrden to-day, Gladstone
said: Although the Liberals sustained
smashing defeat at the last election, the
present year is full of signs that the judg-
ment of the nation, when again pro-
nounCed, will be far different. The irish
question continues to cast into deep shade
every other question" He did not believe
the end would be long delayed Little
progress would be possible in English and
Scottish affairs until the Irish question was
brought to happy oonsummalon. It was
SAID that he caused the block in the last
session of Parliament. The fact was it was
not by him nor his friends that the progress
of affairs had been stopped. 1t was be-
cause the Government found il necessary
to occupy the time of Parliament with
miserable and mischievous retrogressiye
proposals.
Referring to the Liberal -Unionists, he
said he would not find fault with their con-
scienuous opposition. AT the same time,
their whole conduct was deplOrable posi-
ton for gentlemen protesting Liberalism.

ST. LOUIS GUESTS.
How the President and Party Were En-
tertained Yesterday.


ST. LOUIS, October 4th.-At 9 o'clock the
President was met at his hotel by COM
mittee and escorted to the Courthouse un-
der protection of a troop of mounted
police. There was a reception by the Com
mercial Travellers Association in the
rotunda of the Courthouse, which was
handsomely decorated with evergreens and
bunting. About five hundred travelling
men passed by the President in single file.
FOLLOWING them was a crowd, and hand
shaking continued until 1890.
The reception over, the President hurried
to his carriage through side entrance and
was driven to the excursion boat. At the
same hour Mrs. Cleveland left the hotel
and was aboard the boat few minutes
later, and then the President and vessel
steamed down the river for trip to Jeffer-
son Barracks.
The saloon of the vessel was handsomely
adorned with flowers, and the United States
Arsenal band was in attendance. There
were between 800 and 400 invited guests
aboard. The trip was sgotten up as a relief
for the President and Mrs. Cleveland from
the almost constant round of receptions
and other festivities. The boat ran down
the stream about eight miles, turned and
reached the landing again at 1890. An
accompanying excursion boat fired an
artillery salute, while tugs, steamers and
locomotives on both shores saluted with
steam whistles.
GUARDING AGAINST ACCIDENTS.
ST. LOUIS, October 4th-The Alton road

the safety OF the President tonight during

slstlng OF an engine and the official car of
the road, precedes the Presidential train.

Scandalous Revelations of the Doinss of
College Hazers.

Scandalous Revelations of the Doings of
College Hazers.
PITTsFIELD, October 4th.-The exposure
OF the brutal hazing OF young George
Choate, by the sophomores of Williams
College, has brought down upon that insti-
tuition burst of popular Indignation that
led to a public meeting yesterday to de-
nounce the faculty. President Carter is
much chagrined and had hard work this
afternoon to prevent the wholesale arrest
of the entire sophomore class, warrants
having been sworn out against them by the
victims father. The faculty appeased the
storm by promising to hunt out the offend
ers and turn them over to the State officials.
A rigid investigation is being made in
the affair, which has tonight brought out
the announcement that Choate has long
been a victim of some of the sophs Not
only was he treated as reported, but upon
three other occasions he was taken into a
bedroom, and compelled to pose i'll inde-
cent attitudes, and at the same time to re-
peat the Lords prayer, the creed, and de-
liver lmpromptu sermons upon religion.
He was forced to call down imprecations
on his own head and acknowledge that he
was intended for future perdition The re-
suit was that his mind became affected and
gave way under the final torment. He be-
gan to believe what his inquisitors told
him, and now at home during his rawlings
he cries out that he is a lost soul, and
curses his fate, saying he was born damned.
His family are naturally grieved and indig-
nant. and the faculty are much embar-
rassed.
Yesterday five other victims of hazing
were discovered, one man having been
compelled to remove his raiment and cut
his own hair off, after which he was sham
pooed with ginger ale. Another one was
taken out of warm bed and stripped, led
through the dead of night to the river,
about an eighth of mile away, and swung
over the dark stream suspended from
limb of tree by rope passed under his
arms, and made to say and do number of
ridiculous things.
The statements of these unfortunates are
being carefully taken down, and will be
kept for future reference. The faculty have
obtained the names of five of the men, but
the matter is kept so quiet that who they
are is religious secret. This will, however,
put final end to hazing at Williams, for
the class of '91 has pledged not to haze the
class of 80, and the present sophomores
have in return promised not to further mo-
lest the freshmen. These pledges will be
filed at meeting of the faculty.
Young Choate is still out of his head, and
very little change for the better is noticed.

The rumor that ex-senator Creighton,

tanned beyond a doubt that he left the CITY

POLITICAL ASSESSMENTS.
High Public Oficials Violating the Civil

WASHINGTON. October 4th-[Special. +
Should the view taken by Mr.. Oberly, as
to the application of the civil service law
to the State Democratic Association formed
by Government officials and clerks in this
city, be sustained, some high officials
would find themselves subject to legal
prosecution. Assistant Secretary Maynard,
of the Treasury, Chief Clerk Youman and
Public Printer Benedict are active members
of the New York Democratic Association,
paying their dues regularly. President
Cleveland, Colonel Lamont, Secretary Fair
child, Secretary Whitney and Secretary
Manning have been elected honorary mem
bers of the Association. Honory members
don't pay any fees, and therefore would
not come under the application of the law
The President and Colonel Lamont were
notified OF the election, but have not
written any letter of Acknowledgement.
This was not considered necessary, nor ex-
pected, however, and they are recorded as
honorary members of the Association. In
the club rooms there are three large por-
traits in a row - Cleveland, Hale and
Manning-and on the mantle are large
photos of Secretary Fairchild and Colonel
Lamont.

SUPPOSED ANARCHISTS.
How Policemen are Nightly Shot Down
In Philadelphia

ICopyiJht, 1881, oy NE Cdty AsSociGted fFess
PHILADELPHIA, October 4th-[Special. i
Three murderous attacks have been made
on Philadelphia policemen within one
week. Yesterday morning policeman John
ston was fatally shot as he questioned
suspicious character whom he suspected of
being burglar. A few minutes later an
other policeman was fired at by man
running through the street. A few nights
ago another watchman of the night in
patroling the halls and corridors of large
hotel, was shot down by thief.
These closely succeeding crimes have oc-
casioned considerable excitement. The
Ledger says There must be reason for
this outbreak of the shooting of watch
men and killing of policemen in the quiet
and proper performance of their duty.
Whatever that reason may be, just at the
present moment in Philadelphia, there can
be no difficulty in tracing it back to the
laws delay in dealing with the perpetra-
tors of such crimes, and the immunity
which has thus far shielded the brutal
assassins who murdered eight Chicago po-
licemen nearly two years ago"
